The Fall Guy (1981) s01e21 Episode Script

The Silent Partner

WELL, I'M NOT THE KIND
TO KISS AND TELL
BUT I'VE BEEN SEEN
WITH FARRAH
I'VE NEVER BEEN
WITH ANYTHING LESS
THAN A NINE
SO FINE
I'VE BEEN ON FIRE
WITH SALLY FIELD
GONE FAS WITH A GIRL NAMED BO
BUT SOMEHOW THEY JUS DON'T END UP AS MINE
IT'S A DEATH-DEFYIN' LIFE
I LEAD
I TAKE MY CHANCES
I DIE FOR A LIVIN'
IN THE MOVIES AND TV
[ Siren Wailing ]
BUT THE HARDEST THING
I EVER DO
IS WATCH MY LEADING LADIES
KISS SOME OTHER GUY
WHILE I'M BANDAGIN' MY KNEE
I MIGHT FALL
FROM A TALL BUILDIN'
I MIGHT ROLL
A BRAND-NEW CAR
'CAUSE I'M
THE UNKNOWN STUNTMAN
THAT MADE REDFORD
SUCH A STAR
[ Women Vocalizing ]
I'VE NEVER SPEN MUCH TIME IN SCHOOL
BUT I'VE TAUGH LADIES PLENTY
IT'S TRUE I HIRE
MY BODY OUT FOR PAY
HEY, HEY
I'VE GOTTEN BURNED
OVER CHERYL TIEGS
BLOWN UP FOR RAQUEL WELCH
BUT WHEN I WIND UP
IN THE HAY, IT'S ONLY HAY
HEY, HEY
I MIGHT JUMP
AN OPEN DRAWBRIDGE
OR TARZAN FROM A VINE
'CAUSE I'M
THE UNKNOWN STUNTMAN
THAT MAKES EASTWOOD
LOOK SO FINE
[ Colt Narrating ]
THIS IS THE STORY OF ONE OF
AMERICA'S GREAT UNSUNG HEROES.
I MEAN, YOU'VE SEEN HIM,
BUT YOU NEVER KNEW WHO HE WAS.
YOU'VE CHEERED FOR HIM
AND CRIED FOR HIM,
WOMEN HAVE WANTED
TO DIE FOR HIM.
BUT DID HE EVER GET ANY CREDIT?
OR THE GIRL? NO.
HE WAS WHAT WE CALL A STUNTMAN.
AND THE REASON I'M TALKIN'
SO FONDLY ABOUT HIM IS--
WELL, BECAUSE IT'S ME,
COLT SEAVERS.
ANYWAY, PICTURE WORK
ISN'T WALL-TO-WALL EMPLOYMENT.
SO MAYBE YOU WONDER HOW
A GUY KEEPS HIS HEAD TOGETHER.
WELL, ONE WAY
IS TO WAIT BY THE PHONE
AND WAIT AND WAIT.
THE OTHER IS TO TAKE
AN OCCASIONAL JOB
FOR THE COURT SYSTEM
OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
WHERE A MAN IS
CONSIDERED INNOCEN UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.
UNFORTUNATELY, SOMETIMES A LO OF THESE PEOPLE
GET OUT OF JAIL
ON WHAT WE CALL BAIL.
AND THEY RUN LIKE HELL.
THAT'S WHERE I COME IN.
I SOMETIMES PICK UP RENT MONEY
TRYIN' TO FIND THEM
AND BRING THEM BACK TO JUSTICE.
[ Country ]
EVERY TIME I THINK
I'VE PUT YOU
IN MY REARVIEW MIRROR
I REALIZE THAT OBJECTS
ARE CLOSER
THAN THEY APPEAR
[ Continues, Indistinct ]
THANK YOU, HONEY.
[ Chuckles ]
CAN I GET YOU
ANOTHER DRINK, MR. MATHEWS?
NO, HONEY, I DON'T THINK SO.
I THINK I'M GONNA GO ON HOME.
CAN YOU TELL MY DRIVER
I'M READY TO GO, PLEASE?
UH, SURE THING.
MR. MATHEWS, DID YOU GE A CHANCE TO LISTEN TO THA TAPE I GAVE YOU?
YES, I DID, AND IT'S GOOD.
I'M GONNA GIVE I TO A COMPOSER I KNOW.
YOU JUST MIGHT HAVE
SOMETHING THERE, SWEETHEART.
NOW WOULD YOU TELL DUANE
I'M READY TO LEAVE, PLEASE?
- UM, SURE THING.
- [ Man Whooping ]
[ Continues ]
YOUR BOSS WANTS
TO SEE YOU, DUANE.
[ Gasps ]
GOD, DUANE,
- WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?
- BUT THE BOSS WANTS ME.
SO HE CAN WAIT FIVE MINUTES.
I'M NOT THROUGH TALKING TO YOU.
OH, DIXIE, YOU KNOW
HOW MAD HE GETS AT ME.
I DON'T WANT HIM MAD AT ME.
WHO'S MORE IMPORTANT,
ME OR HIM?
WELL, YOU.
CAN I GO NOW?
GO AHEAD, YOU BIG FOOL.
I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.
BYE, DIXIE.
[ Chuckles ]
MR. MATHEWS.
YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE
TO BE KEPT WAITING, DUANE.
I'M SORRY, SIR.
AH, THAT'S OKAY. BRING THE LIMO
AROUND BACK, WOULD YOU?
YES, SIR.
[ Continues ]
WHAT ARE YOU DOIN' HERE,
KENNY?
YOU OWE ME, ROBERT.
AND I TOLD YOU
I DON'T OWE YOU ANYTHING.
THEN I GUESS I'M GONNA
HAVE TO CALL THE PRESS
AND HAVE 'EM EXPOSE
THE LEGENDARY ROBERT MATHEWS
FOR WHAT HE REALLY IS--
A TOTAL FRAUD.
WHAT HAPPENED, BOSS?
HE TRIED TO ROB ME.
- LOOKS LIKE HE'S HURT REAL BAD.
- [ Ballad ]
HE'S STILL BREATHIN'.
I'LL CALL AN AMBULANCE.
THIS IS GONNA LOOK BAD
FOR ME, DUANE, EVEN IF
IT WAS SELF-DEFENSE.
I SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE
WITH YOU, BOSS.
LISTEN TO ME, DUANE.
I CAN'T AFFORD
THIS KIND OF PUBLICITY,
NOT WITH A NEW ALBUM
COMING OUT
- AND THE MOTION PICTURE PAR I'M UP FOR.
- IF I'D ONLY BEEN HERE.
YOU CAN HELP ME, DUANE.
YEAH. YOU CAN HELP ME
GET OUT OF THIS.
- I'LL DO ANYTHING, BOSS.
- OKAY.
WHEN THE POLICE COME, I WAN YOU TO TELL 'EM YOU DID IT.
TELL 'EM YOU WERE PROTECTING ME.
HE ATTACKED ME,
AND YOU TOOK CARE OF HIM.
[ Duane ]
WHAT IF HE TELLS
THE POLICE THE TRUTH?
DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT.
IT'S HIS WORD AGAINST OURS.
BESIDES, I'LL MAKE I WORTH HIS WHILE
TO SEE IT MY WAY.
- MONEY ALWAYS WORKS.
- I DON'T KNOW.
DIDN'T I TAKE YOU IN
WHEN YOU HAD NOTHIN'?
DIDN'T I GIVE YOU A JOB
AND A PLACE TO LIVE?
DIDN'T I LET YOU DRIVE
A BIG, FINE CAR AND GO TO ALL
THOSE FANCY PLACES WITH ME?
I KNOW.
AND I SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE.
YOU'RE RIGHT, DUANE.
LOOK. THIS GUY'S GONNA
WAKE UP WITH A HEADACHE.
THE WORST POSSIBLE THING
THAT COULD HAPPEN--
YOU'LL GET A SUSPENDED SENTENCE
FOR ASSAULT.
- [ Exhales ] OKAY, BOSS.
- THAT-A-BOY, DUANE.
I WON'T FORGET THIS.
[ Tires Squealing ]
[ Engine Revving ]
[ Applause ]
THAT PROBABLY LOOKED LIKE
I MADE IT THROUGH THA WITHOUT A SCRATCH, DIDN'T IT?
LET ME TELL YOU
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.
TIRES BLEW,
THE FRONT SUSPENSION COLLAPSED,
BACK AXLE BROKE,
I BRUISED MY RIBS
AND THEN I ALMOST DROWNED.
STUNTS MAY LOOK EASY,
BUT THEY'RE VERY,
VERY DANGEROUS.
SO I WANT TO IMPRESS ON YOU
HOW STUPID IT IS
TO TRY A STUNT WITHOU FIRST BEING TRAINED TO DO SO.
SO IF YOU'RE PLANNING
ON JUMPING YOUR BICYCLE
OVER SOME TRASH CANS OR--
[ Laughing ]
PLANNING TO ROLL YOUR FATHER'S
STATION WAGON, FORGET IT.
YOU MAY JUST END UP DESTROYING
YOUR VEHICLE AND YOURSELF.
YES, SON?
YOU GOT A QUESTION?
HOW DO YOU BECOME
A STUNTMAN?
WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
YOU HAVE TO BE
A VERY GOOD ATHLETE.
PARTICIPATING
IN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE
ATHLETIC PROGRAMS HELPS.
OF COURSE, PHYSICAL ABILITY'S
ONLY HALF OF IT.
YOU HAVE TO KNOW A LITTLE BI ABOUT PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICS.
[ All Groaning ]
WE DON'T JUST FLY CARS
THROUGH THE AIR OR JUMP OFF
HIGH BUILDINGS
WITHOUT KNOWING EXACTLY
WHERE WE'RE GONNA LAND.
AND TO KNOW THAT,
WE HAVE TO USE A LITTLE
PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICS.
THEN YOU HAVE TO FIND
A GOOD WORKING STUNTMAN
THAT'S WILLING TO TRAIN YOU.
AND IT JUST DOESN' HAPPEN OVERNIGHT.
IT TAKES YEARS.
- ARE YOU TRAINING ANYBODY NOW?
- YES. MY COUSIN.
AND HE'S A GOOD EXAMPLE
OF WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.
HE SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN
COLLEGES AND HE'S BEEN WORKING
WITH ME FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW.
AND HE'S COMING ALONG
REALLY WELL.
[ Howie ]
BIG JACK SAID
THIS WOULD BE EASY, COLT.
[ Colt ]
SHE ALWAYS SAYS THA WHEN SHE'S IN TROUBLE, KID.
[ Colt ]
I TAKE IT SINCE THIS
KENNY TIPPET GUY DIED,
DUANE SMITH'S
BOND'S BEEN REVOKED.
THIS MORNING.
THE BAIL HAD BEEN SE FOR A CHARGE OF ASSAULT.
WHEN TIPPET DIED,
THE D.A. RULED IT MURDER TWO.
SO DUANE SKIPPED?
WELL, I REALLY DON'T KNOW.
I TRIED TO CONTACT HIM,
BUT NOBODY'S SEEN HIM.
OH, HE SKIPPED.
WHAT'S THE CONNECTION BETWEEN
DUANE SMITH AND MATHEWS?
WELL, UH,
DUANE DRIVES FOR MATHEWS.
WHAT ABOUT TIPPET?
I REALLY DON'T KNOW.
DUANE AND MATHEWS SAY
THEY'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE.
- WHO IS THIS GUY MATHEWS
ANYWAY?
- WHAT, ARE YOU KIDDING?
HE'S ONE OF THE HOTTES COUNTRY-WESTERN SINGERS AROUND.
OH, I DON'T LISTEN
TO MUCH COUNTRY MUSIC.
YOU NEVER HEARD
"SHE'S A 10
WITH THE LIGHTS OUT"?
NO.
WHAT ABOUT "SHE BROKE MY HEART,
SO I BROKE HER JAW"?
- SORRY. NO.
- YOU CALL YOURSELF EDUCATED?
I GOT A TAPE OF HIS
IN THE TRUCK. I'LL PLAY I FOR YOU ON THE WAY TO MATHEWS'S.
BY THE WAY,
WE'LL NEED A PICTURE
OF THIS DUANE SMITH
SO WE CAN BOTH KNOW
WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE.
OKAY.
NOW YOU WON'T HAVE
ANY PROBLEM
WITH THIS CASE, COLT.
JUST HAVE A LOT OF FUN,
YOU BOYS.
[ Mathews ]
LAST NIGH YOU TIPTOED IN AT 2:00 A.M.
WELL, YOU KISSED ME CHEEK
AND YOU SOFTLY SAID
I LOVE YOU, BABE
AND MY NOSE
MADE ME WONDER
SO I'LL HAVE TO ASK
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN
WEARING AFTERSHAVE
[ With Chorus ]
I SMELL A LIE
I SMELL A LIE
YOU CAN'T WASH AWAY
THAT LOVE LOOK IN YOUR EYE
YOUR PASSION SHOWS
IN THOSE WRINKLED CLOTHES
DON'T TELL ME NO
I SMELL A LIE
[ Fades ]
HOWDY.
I'M COLT SEAVERS.
UH, HOWIE MUNSON.
MR. MATHEWS IS
EXPECTING YOU, MR. SEAVERS.
OPEN UP, GREG.
[ Gate Rattling ]
HOWDY.
HOWDY.
MR. MATHEWS IS IN
THE RECORDING STUDIO.
HE TOLD ME TO SEND YOU ON IN.
WHERE IS IT?
IT'S IN THE BARN.
[ Colt ]
THANK YOU.
HE'S SURE GOT A LO OF PROTECTION, DOESN'T HE?
WELL, BIG STARS ARE GETTING
THREATENED A LOT LATELY.
I GUESS AFTER WHAT HAPPENED
WITH THAT TIPPET FELLA,
MATHEWS THOUGHT HE NEEDED IT.
I CAN'T SAY AS I BLAME HIM.
AND I FILL THE GAP
IN LAST NIGHT'S MYSTERY
CAN YOU IMAGINE MY SURPRISE
WHEN CHARLIE FLICKED A BIC
THAT I GAVE TO YOU
FOR OUR ANNIVERSARY
[ All ]
I SMELL A LIE
I SMELL A LIE
YOU CAN'T WASH AWAY
THAT LOVE LOOK IN YOUR EYE
YOUR PASSION SHOWS
IN THOSE WRINKLED CLOTHES
DON'T TELL ME NO
I SMELL A LIE
I SMELL A LIE
YOU CAN'T WASH AWAY
THAT LOVE LOOK IN YOUR EYE
YOUR PASSION SHOWS
IN THOSE WRINKLED CLOTHES
DON'T TELL ME NO
I SMELL A LIE
[ Ends ]
NO, NO, NO, LADIES.
THIS IS COUNTRY MUSIC.
YOU'RE NO IN DETROIT ANYMORE.
LET'S PICK IT UP IN FIVE.
LET'S TAKE A BREAK, EVERYBODY.
[ Tape Rewinding ]
YOU MUST BE, UH,
MR. SEAVERS AND, UH,
MR. MUNSON.
I'M COLT.
COLT.
THIS HERE'S HOWIE.
HI, HOWIE.
PLEASURE MEETING YA.
WELL, THE PLEASURE'S OURS.
I'VE BEEN A BIG FAN OF YOURS
FOR A LONG TIME.
- UH, SO HAS HOWIE.
- BIG FAN.
- I GUESS YOU KNOW
WHY WE'RE HERE.
- WELL, I'M AFRAID I DO,
BUT LET'S GE ONE THING STRAIGHT.
THE WORST IT COULD
POSSIBLY BE IS SELF-DEFENSE.
DUANE WAS PROTECTING ME.
THAT'S FOR THE COURTS
TO DECIDE.
- OUR JOB'S JUST TO BRING HIM
BACK SO HE CAN STAND TRIAL.
- WELL, I KNOW AND I'M SORRY.
IT'S JUST THAT DUANE
WOULDN'T HURT A FLY
ON PURPOSE.
HE MAY BE BIG, BUT HE'S REALLY
A SWEET AND GENTLE MAN,
AND I'D REALLY LIKE TO HELP HIM.
WELL, THE BEST WAY TO DO THA IS TO HELP US FIND HIM
BEFORE THE POLICE DO.
YOU SEE, HIS BEST SHO IS TO STAND TRIAL.
I WISHED I HAD MORE
INFORMATION THAT WOULD
HELP YOU, BUT I DON'T.
ARE YOU SURE?
ANYTHING MIGHT BE USEFUL.
WELL, THERE IS
THIS GIRL THAT HE SEES.
I THINK HER NAME IS DIXIE JAMES.
SHE WORKS AT ONE OF THESE
DRIVE-IN RESTAURANTS.
I BELIEVE
IT'S CALLED B.J.'s.
- DIXIE JAMES?
- DIXIE JAMES.
UH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
MR. MATHEWS.
WE APPRECIATE IT.
I JUST WISHED I COULD BE
OF A LITTLE MORE HELP.
THANKS AGAIN.
DON'T TELL ME NO
I SMELL A LIE
COLT, WHAT DO YOU SAY
WE PICK UP A COUPLE OF BURGERS
WHILE WE'RE THERE?
KID, WE'RE ON A JOB.
[ Country ]
[ Continues ]
WHAT CAN I GET FOR YA?
ARE YOU, UH, DIXIE JAMES?
YEAH.
- WE'RE LOOKIN' FOR DUANE SMITH.
- DUANE? YOU WORK
FOR THE POLICE?
NO, WE WORK
FOR THE BONDING COMPANY
THAT PUT UP HIS BOND.
A BOUNTY HUNTER, HUH?
WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE
AND ALL THAT?
WELL, IT DOESN'T EXACTLY
WORK LIKE THAT ANYMORE.
WELL, IF YOU CAME TO ME
FOR INFORMATION, YOU'RE LOOKIN'
IN THE WRONG PLACE.
DUANE IS THE SWEETEST MAN
I KNOW, AND HE WOULDN' HURT ANYBODY.
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO MR. TIPPE MUST HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT.
LOOK, I DON'T PRETEND TO KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED TO DUANE TO GE HIM INTO ALL THIS TROUBLE,
BUT I DO KNOW THA HE JUMPED BAIL, AND I'M
GONNA BRING HIM BACK
- WHETHER YOU HELP ME OR NOT.
- OH, YOU ARE, ARE YOU?
- YES.
- DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT HIS RUNNING LIKE THIS
MAKES HIM LOOK GUILTY
EVEN IF HE ISN'T?
DIXIE, PLEASE HELP US
FIND HIM. IT'S REALLY
THE BEST THING FOR HIM.
WELL, I GUESS YOU GUYS
ARE ON THE SQUARE.
I GUESS STANDING TRIAL
IS BETTER THAN RUNNING
ALL HIS LIFE.
LOOK, I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE,
BUT HE MIGHT BE HIDIN' OU IN A HOUSE DEEP IN THE HILLS.
I HAVE TO DRAW YOU A MAP.
HEY, THAT'S GREAT.
YOU WON'T REGRET THIS.
- NICE ROOM, HUH, DUANE?
- HOW LONG
DO I HAVE TO STAY HERE?
AH, LONG ENOUGH
FOR ME TO GET THIS MESS
STRAIGHTENED OUT.
I HAVE TO STAY HERE
ALL BY MYSELF?
NAH. I'LL COME BY
AND VISIT YOU.
YOU WON'T BE HERE
MORE THAN A DAY OR TWO.
WATCH TELEVISION.
THAT'S ALL YOU EVER DO
AT HOME ANYWAY.
CAN I CALL DIXIE?
NO.
YOU CAN'T CALL ANYBODY.
NO ONE'S SUPPOSED
TO KNOW YOU'RE HERE.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
YES, SIR, I UNDERSTAND.
THAT-A-BOY.
I'LL COME BY AND SEE YOU
TONIGHT. LET ME TURN
THIS THING ON FOR YOU.
[ TV: Cartoon Whistle ]
BYE, MR. MATHEWS.
[ Door Closes ]
[ Colt ]
WELL, SHE SAID
IT WAS PRETTY FAR OUT.
THIS HAS GOT TO BE IT HERE.
[ Colt ]
STAY HERE IN CASE WE GET SOME
UNEXPECTED COMPANY, HUH?
[ Howie ]
SHE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING
ABOUT A DOG.
WELL, ANIMALS LOVE ME.
MUST BE A BIG DOG.
[ Animal Growling ]
[ Roaring ]
OH, GEEZ.
[ Growling ]
NICE KITTY.
[ Growling ]
[ Roaring ]
HEY! GET AWAY FROM MY HAT!
I CAN'T YELL FOR HELP.
I'M A STUNTMAN.
WELL, LET'S SEE
IF HE LIKES THIS.
KITTY. KITTY.
HERE, KITTY.
KITTY, KITTY.
GET IT, GET IT. GET IT!
[ Growls ]
[ Growling, Roaring ]
CAN I HELP YOU?
UH, YEAH.
MY NAME'S HOWIE MUNSON.
MY PARTNER AND I WERE
TRYING TO FOLLOW THIS MAP.
PARTNER? WHERE IS HE?
WELL, HE SORT OF WENT INSIDE
LOOKIN' FOR A GUY.
- DIDN'T HE SEE THE CAT?
- A KITTY CAT?
NO, A 350-POUND CAT.
WE'D BETTER HURRY.
[ Roars ]
HERE, KITTY.
HERE, KITTY.
HE'LL HAVE ME DOWN
TO MY SHORTS.
[ Fabric Ripping ]
[ Growls ]
OH!
- WHAT'D YOU DO TO HIM,
YOU MANGY--
- KID, I'M UP HERE.
COLT! I THOUGHT THAT WAS
ALL THAT WAS LEFT OF YOU.
- WELL, IT NEARLY WAS.
- HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOIN'?
DON'T GO OUT THERE!
WHAT ARE YOU DOIN'?
[ Woman ]
OKAY, YOU CAN
COME DOWN NOW.
I SURE HOPE
HE DIDN'T SCARE YOU.
OH, NO, NO.
I CLIMB TREES
FOR A HOBBY.
WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING
AROUND HERE?
WE'RE LOOKIN' FOR DUANE SMITH.
WELL, UNLESS HE LIVED IN A TENT,
HE'S NEVER LIVED HERE.
THERE'S NO HOUSES ON THIS END
OF THE PROPERTY, AND NO
STRANGERS HAVE BEEN AROUND.
- ARE YOU SURE?
- I SHOULD BE.
I'M THE CARETAKER.
CARETAKER?
AS IN "LIVE UP HERE ALL BY
YOURSELF" CARETAKER?
SURE. I GO TO TOWN A LO AND I HAVE MY BABY.
IF YOU HAVE LIONS IN HERE,
WHY DO YOU HAVE A BEWARE OF DOG
SIGN ON THE GATE OUT THERE?
FIND A HARDWARE STORE THAT DOES
HAVE A BEWARE OF LION SIGN.
SHE HAS A POINT, COLT.
[ TV: Romantic ]
[ No Audible Dialogue ]
THIS IS DIXIE.
HI, SWEETHEART.
IT'S YOUR DUANE.
DUANE. WHERE ARE YOU?
WELL, I KNOW
BUT I CAN'T TELL YOU.
WHY NOT? I WANNA SEE YOU.
I JUST CAN'T.
DUANE, DID YOU REALLY
KILL THAT MAN?
I DON'T WAN TO TALK ABOUT IT.
IT'S MATHEWS, ISN'T IT?
HE TOLD YOU NOT TO SAY
ANYTHING, RIGHT?
DIXIE, I CAN'T TELL YOU.
IF YOU CAN'T TELL ME ANYTHING,
WHY'D YOU CALL?
'CAUSE I MISS YOU.
I MISS YOU TOO, DUANE.
PLEASE TELL ME
WHERE YOU ARE.
NO, I CAN'T.
I PROMISED.
I GOTTA GO, DIXIE. BYE.
DUANE--
DON'T HANG UP. DUANE!
[ Dial Tone ]
[ Door Opens ]
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
OH, JUST A LITTLE WILD
GOOSE CHASE IN THE HILLS.
AND THE GOOSE TURNED OU TO BE A LION.
A LION?
[ Colt ]
YEAH, AND IT WAS
FEEDING TIME.
[ Laughs ]
WHAT'S SO FUNNY?
I DON'T THINK IT'S SO FUNNY.
WHAT IN THE WORLD
WERE YOU DOING IN A PLACE
WHERE THEY KEEP LIONS?
DUANE'S GIRLFRIEND,
DIXIE JAMES,
SENT US OUT THERE.
[ Colt ]
I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING.
LITTLE DIXIE JAMES ISN'T GONNA
THINK IT'S TOO FUNNY WHEN
I GET MY HANDS ON HER.
COME ON, KID.
COLT, CALM DOWN A LITTLE.
DON'T TELL ME
TO CALM DOWN WHEN I WAS
ALMOST EATEN BY A LION.
HEY!
WHERE'S DIXIE JAMES?
WHO?
DIXIE JAMES.
SHE'S NOT HERE.
I-I MEAN, SHE'S GONE.
GONE WHERE?
I-I DON'T WANT ANY TROUBLE.
I-I'VE-- I'VE ONLY BEEN
MANAGING HERE FOR A WEEK.
THERE WON'T BE ANY TROUBLE.
YOU JUST TELL US WHERE SHE IS.
OKAY, OKAY. I'LL--
I'LL TELL YOU.
SHE LEFT WORK EARLY
BECAUSE SHE'LL BE SINGIN'
LATER TONIGHT AT THE PALOMINO--
IT'S AMATEUR NIGHT.
[ Dixie ]
IT'S A PARTY FOR TWO
JUST ME AND YOU
MÃNAGE Ã DEUX
IT'S GONNA LAST ALL NIGHT
LAST ALL NIGHT
I'M GONNA DO I TILL I DO IT RIGHT
DO IT RIGHT

AND IF YOU DON' GET ENOUGH THE FIRST TIME
WHY DON'T YOU GO AROUND
AND, UH, TALK TO SOME
OF THE PATRONS?
SOMEBODY HERE MIGHT KNOW DUANE
OR AT LEAST KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
YEAH. THAT'D BE A PLEASURE.
YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT
AH, IT'S A PARTY FOR TWO
MÃNAGE Ã DEUX
IT'S A PARTY FOR TWO

[ Applause ]
THANK Y'ALL VERY MUCH.
HEY!
I WANNA THANK YOU FOR THAT TIP.
THAT WAS REAL HELPFUL.
TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME!
LOOK, I DON'T WAN TO HURT YOU.
I DON'T EVEN WANT TO BOTHER YOU.
BUT THAT LION COULD'VE HURT ME
REAL BAD THIS MORNING.
LOOK, I'M SORRY.
BUT WHAT'D YOU EXPECT FROM ME?
YOU'RE TRYING TO CATCH
THE MAN I LOVE.
COLT, YOU GOTTA SEE THIS.
NOT NOW, KID.
WE'RE HAVING A LITTLE TALK.
LOOK, DIXIE, I CAN UNDERSTAND
YOUR WANTING TO PROTECT HIM,
BUT YOU'LL MAKE THINGS
EASIER FOR HIM
IF YOU'LL JUST HELP ME.
I'LL TELL YOU
THE TRUTH, MR.--
[ Country ]
SEAVERS. COLT SEAVERS.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE DUANE IS.
I SWEAR IT.
EVEN IF I DID, I STILL
WOULDN'T TELL YOU
UNTIL I FELT CERTAIN THA GOING WITH YOU WOULD BE
THE BEST THING FOR DUANE.
WHAT, YOU MAKE THOSE KIND
OF DECISIONS FOR HIM?
WELL, IF YOU'D EVER
MET HIM, YOU'D KNOW WHY.
HE'S WHAT SOME PEOPLE
CALL SIMPLEMINDED.
HOW SIMPLE?
SIMPLE ENOUGH FOR A LO OF INSENSITIVE PEOPLE
TO MAKE JOKES ABOUT HIM.
HE'S BEEN TEASED
ALL HIS LIFE.
YOU MIND ME ASKING
WHAT YOU SEE IN HIM?
MR. SEAVERS,
I'VE HAD MY SHARE
OF BETTER-LOOKING MEN
AND ONES THAT THOUGH THAT THEY WAS
A WHOLE LOT SMARTER.
WELL, NOT ONE OF THEM
TREATED ME WITH THE RESPEC OR TENDERNESS THAT DUANE DOES.
WHEN I'M WITH DUANE,
I FEEL LOVED.
WELL, YOU CAN'T HAVE
A BETTER REASON THAN THAT.
YEAH.
AND THAT'S ALSO THE REASON
I KNOW DUANE DIDN' KILL ANYBODY.
IT JUST AIN'T IN HIM.
THAT'S NOT FOR EITHER OF US
TO SAY. SOMEBODY KILLED TIPPET.
AND ONLY MATHEWS AND DUANE
WERE THERE.
NOW, DUANE CONFESSED.
I'M SURE YOU CAN SEE WHY
PEOPLE WOULD THINK HE DID IT.
[ Continues ]
I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY.
I DON'T CARE WHAT DUANE SAYS.
I KNOW HE DIDN'T DO IT.
COLT, WE GOTTA
GET OUTTA HERE FAST!
WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?
YOU LOOK LIKE YOU JUS STOLE SOMETHING.
I DID. LOOK AT THIS.
BUT NOT NOW. YOU CAN LOOK
AT IT LATER. COME ON.
[ Continues ]
ALL RIGHT, KID.
THIS BETTER BE GOOD.
IT IS.
[ Continues ]
LOOK. THAT'S MATHEWS.
- THAT'S KENNY TIPPET.
- YEAH. SO WHAT?
SO MATHEWS TOLD THE POLICE
THAT HE'D NEVER SEEN TIPPE BEFORE THAT NIGHT.
GOOD WORK, KID.
I DON'T KNOW
EXACTLY WHAT IT MEANS,
BUT GOOD WORK.
WELL, DON'T YOU SEE, COLT?
IF MATHEWS LIED ABOU NOT KNOWING TIPPET,
MAYBE HE LIED ABOU NOT KNOWING WHERE DUANE IS.
I MEAN, WHAT IF HE'S
PROTECTING HIM?
WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?
HE SAID IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
HIS TESTIMONY CAN CLEAR DUANE
OF THE MURDER CHARGE.
WELL, WHAT IF THERE'S
MORE TO THIS CASE
THAN ANYBODY KNOWS ABOUT?
- LIKE WHAT?
- I DON'T KNOW YET.
BUT WHAT IF THERE IS MORE?
[ Sighs ]
WELL, WE'LL SHOW THIS
TO MATHEWS IN THE MORNING.
NOW YOU'RE TALKIN', COLT.
[ Mathews ]
ARE YOU SURE THIS IS
THE GUY THAT TRIED TO ROB ME?
I MEAN, THIS PICTURE
WASN'T EXACTLY TAKEN YESTERDAY.
OH, IT'S HIM, ALL RIGHT.
I DON'T REMEMBER
EVER SEEIN' HIM BEFORE.
MR. SEAVERS, I MUST BE
IN A THOUSAND PICTURES
LIKE THIS A YEAR.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO REMEMBER
EVERY FAN THAT I TAKE
A PICTURE WITH?
ARE YOU SAYING KENNY TIPPE WAS JUST A FAN?
ABSOLUTELY. AND I CAN'T SAY
THAT I APPRECIATE YOU TWO
THINKIN' OTHERWISE.
I MEAN,
WHAT'S GOIN' ON HERE?
I THOUGHT YOU TWO
WERE SUPPOSED TO BRING
DUANE IN TO STAND TRIAL.
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE
TRYIN' TO SOLVE A CASE
THAT'S ALREADY BEEN SOLVED.
IF IT REALLY WAS SOLVED.
WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED
TO MEAN?
I SUPPOSE THAT DEPENDS
ON WHETHER YOU'VE BEEN
TELLING US THE TRUTH OR NOT.
I WAS AFRAID YOU WAS GONNA
SAY SOMETHIN' LIKE THAT.
I THINK YOU TWO HAVE JUS WORN OUT YOUR WELCOME.
YEAH, WELL,
WE WERE GOIN' ANYWAY.
GOOD.
AS MUCH AS IT HURTS TO SAY THIS,
I'D LIKE IT IF YOU
NEVER CAME BACK.
OH, WE WON'T BE BACK
UNLESS WE FIND OUT THA YOU REALLY ARE LYING TO US.
LET'S GO, KID.
- SAM.
- YEAH, BOSS?
HOW WOULD YOU AND GREG
LIKE TO PICK UP
AN EXTRA FIVE GRAND?
IF I'VE EVER SEEN A MAN
THAT WAS LYIN' THROUGH
HIS TEETH, IT WAS MATHEWS.
HE KNEW TIPPET.
I BET HE KNOWS WHERE DUANE IS
RIGHT THIS VERY MOMENT.
MAYBE. BUT HE WAS
RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING.
IT'S NOT OUR JOB
TO SOLVE THE MURDER.
IT'S OUR JOB TO FIND DUANE.
YEAH, BUT IT SURE
MAKES YOU WONDER.
HERE THEY COME.
WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT?
JUST BECAUSE HE DRIVES
A CATTLE TRUCK,
- HE THINKS HE OWNS THE ROAD.
- [ Sniffs ]
BOY, THAT SMELLS AWFUL.
[ Colt ]
WHEW!
SURE AIN'T AQUA VELVET.
ROLL UP YOUR WINDOW,
WILL YOU?
LET'S SEE IF I CAN
GET AROUND THIS CODGER.
HEY! WHAT'S HE DOIN'?
- [ Tires Squealing ]
- THAT GUY'S NUTS.
HOLD ON, KID.
CRAZY OLD FARMER.
HE'S TRYIN' TO RUN US
OFF THE ROAD.
- [ Tires Squealing ]
- HEY!
HEY! HOLD ON, KID!
YOU OKAY, COLT?
YEAH.
HOW ABOUT YOU, KID?
YEAH. I THOUGH WE WERE DEAD FOR SURE.
THAT'S A PRETTY CLOSE CALL.
CLOSE? I SAW
ALL MY COLLEGE COURSES
FLASH BEFORE MY EYES.
HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOU THIS PLACE ANYWAY, COLT?
EVERYBODY
THAT LOVES MACHINES
KNOWS ABOUT SKIP.
HE'S THE BES MECHANIC AROUND.
THE ONLY THING IS,
HE LIVES SO FAR BACK
UP HERE IN THE HILLS.
YEAH, WELL, THIS TIME
THE LOCATION CAME IN HANDY.
YOU KNOW, I'M BEGINNING
TO BELIEVE YOUR THEORY
ABOUT MATHEWS.
OUR LITTLE TRIP
INTO THAT RAVINE
WASN'T ANY ACCIDENT.
WELL, WHAT ARE WE
GONNA DO ABOUT IT?
WELL, FIRST THINGS FIRST.
CALL JODY.
SEE IF SHE CAN BRING US
ANOTHER SET OF WHEELS.
RIGHT AWAY.
WHAT'D YOU DO,
ENTER THIS TRUCK
IN A DEMOLITION DERBY?
NO. TOOK A SHORT TRIP
OVER A STEEP CLIFF.
[ Whirring ]
YOU STUNT GUYS ARE CRAZY,
BUT YOU KEEP ME IN BUSINESS.
HOW MUCH TIME
IN THE SHOP, SKIP?
WELL, YOU REALLY DID A NUMBER
ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION,
AND THE RADIATOR'S
TOTALLY SHOT.
AND YOU'RE GONNA NEED SOME
WORK ON THE STEERING COLUMN,
NOT TO MENTION
ALL THE BODY WORK.
I'D SAY, UH,
DAY AFTER TOMORROW.
BUT YOU GOT PARTS
ON THIS THING YOU JUST CAN' BUY OVER THE COUNTER.
YEAH, I KNOW, I KNOW.
I GET THE PICTURE. UH--
I'LL PUT EVERY
AVAILABLE MAN ON HER.
OF COURSE, THERE'S ONLY ME.
WHAT ABOUT JODY? SHE COMING?
NAH, SHE'S NOT HOME,
AND SHE'S NOT AT OUR PLACE.
AND I CALLED BIG JACK,
BUT SHE'S IN COURT.
OH, GREAT.
WHAT AM I GONNA DO
FOR TRANSPORTATION?
HEY! HEY, YOU CAN USE
MY TRUCK!
NO, NO, NO, SKIP.
HEY, COME ON, COLT.
WE'RE FRIENDS!
YOU NEED WHEELS,
YOU GOT 'EM.
SHE'S RIGHT OVER HERE.
SHE'S A REAL BEAUTY,
AIN'T SHE?
I BUILT HER MYSELF
WITH STUFF I FOUND
AROUND THE JUNKYARD.
YEAH, SKIP. SHE'S A REAL
RED-BLOODED PIECE OF
AMERICANA.
FOR SURE. AND SHE'S
SOLID AS A ROCK.
I LIVED IN HER FOR THREE YEARS
AFTER THE WIFE LEFT.
THIS BABY MAY NOT HAVE
ALL THE POWER
THAT YOU'RE USED TO,
BUT SHE'S GOT PERSONALITY,
NOT TO MENTION
RUNNING WATER IN THE BACK.
GEE, SKIP, UH--
LOOK,
I REALLY APPRECIATE
YOUR OFFER, BUT--
HEY, UH, IF SHE'S NOT GOOD
ENOUGH FOR YOU--
OH, SKIP,
IT'S NOTHING LIKE THAT.
HEY, I UNDERSTAND.
I MEAN, YOU'RE A BIG
HOLLYWOOD STUNTMAN AND ALL.
[ Colt ] YOU KNOW,
SKIP'S A HELL OF A MECHANIC,
BUT A TERRIBLE CARPENTER.
COLT, LOOK.
THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT'S
A REFRIGERATOR.
YOU WANT A SODA?
NO.
LET ME SEE
THAT PHOTOGRAPH AGAIN.
SURE.
YOU KNOW, THE MORE
I THINK ABOUT IT,
THE MORE I BELIEVE THAT
THAT MATHEWS WAS LYING TO US
ABOUT THIS PICTURE.
- WHAT MADE YOU
CHANGE YOUR MIND?
- NEARLY GETTING KILLED.
YEAH, WELL, WE BOTH KNOW
MATHEWS WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR US
GOING OFF THE ROAD.
- BUT HOW ARE WE GONNA PROVE IT?
- WELL, MAYBE THIS PHOTOGRAPHER,
MICHAELS, KNOWS SOMETHING.
- HE TOOK THE PICTURE.
- HE TOOK IT A LONG TIME AGO.
HOW WE GONNA FIND HIM?
WE GO LOOKIN'
IN THE FIRST PLACE
EVERY BOUNTY HUNTER LOOKS.
POLICE RECORDS?
THE YELLOW PAGES.
[ Phone Rings ]
HELLO?
[ Mathews ]
HI, DUANE.
MR. MATHEWS.
HOW MUCH LONGER AM I GONNA
HAVE TO STAY HERE?
THAT'S WHAT I'M CALLING ABOUT.
WE'RE GONNA TAKE A LITTLE TRIP.
BACK TO THE RANCH?
WELL, NOT EXACTLY.
YOU SEE, THEY'RE STILL
MAKING A BIG THING OVER THIS
KENNY TIPPET BUSINESS.
I THINK YOU'D BE A LOT SAFER
IF I GOT YOU OUT OF THE COUNTRY
TILL THE WHOLE THING BLOWS OVER.
OUT OF THE COUNTRY?
DON'T WORRY.
I'VE ARRANGED EVERYTHING.
IT'LL BE LIKE A VACATION.
WE'LL BE FLYING OU IN MY PRIVATE PLANE.
CAN DIXIE COME WITH ME?
NOT RIGHT AWAY,
BUT I'LL HAVE HER OU IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
- CAN I CALL HER AND TELL HER?
- NO, NO. I'LL CALL HER.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING.
BUT I--
HAVE I EVER MADE A PROMISE
TO YOU AND THEN NOT DELIVER?
NO, SIR.
TRUST ME. EVERYTHING
IS GONNA BE GREAT.
[ Line Clicks ]
PRISCILLA, COME ON.
A REAL SASSY
COWGIRL LOOK THERE.
[ Pop ]
VERY GOOD, VERY GOOD.
NOW LOOK STRAIGHT AT THE CAMERA.
[ Shutter Clicking ]
THAT'S IT.
A REAL KNOWING SMILE.
EXCELLENT.
NOW YOU'RE GONNA DO
A BIG SMILE.
ATTAGIRL.
VERY GOOD. VERY GOOD.
ONE MORE THIS WAY.
NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL
A GOOD JOB.
YEAH.
SAY, WHY DON'T YOU
CALL JODY AGAIN,
SEE IF YOU CAN GET US
A DIFFERENT SET OF WHEELS.
VERY GOOD. VERY GOOD, LADIES.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
GOOD DAY'S WORK.
DON'T FORGET-- TOMORROW
WE'RE SHOOTING AT MY HOUSE.
THANKS, LADIES.
NOW, MR. SEAVERS.
PHONE, PHONE.
YEAH.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
YES, SIR.
YOU TOOK THIS PHOTOGRAPH.
I WAS JUST WONDERING
IF YOU COULD RECOGNIZE
THESE GUYS.
- OH, SURE.
BUT IT'S BEEN A FEW YEARS.
- I REALIZE THAT. UH--
I WAS REALLY
JUST GETTING STARTED
AS A PHOTOGRAPHER THEN.
I USED TO TAKE A LOT OF
PUBLICITY PICTURES FOR THE BANDS
ON THE RODEO CIRCUIT.
UH, THESE TWO FELLOWS HERE,
MATHEWS AND TIPPET--
DID THEY, UH,
KNOW EACH OTHER SOCIALLY?
YEAH. THEY BOTH SANG
ON THE CIRCUIT.
THEY WERE BOTH HOPING
TO HIT IT BIG
IN THE COUNTRY-WESTERN SCENE.
- MATHEWS DID. TIPPET DIDN'T.
- TIPPET DIDN'T HAVE
WHAT IT TOOK, HUH?
- HE HAD WHAT IT TOOK
UNTIL THE ACCIDENT.
- WHAT ACCIDENT?
TIPPET WAS HORSING AROUND
ON A BRAHMA BULL ONE DAY
AND HE GOT THROWN.
HE LANDED WITH HIS THROA ON A RAILING. HE RECOVERED.
HE COULD TALK,
BUT SINGING WAS OUT.
- WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THAT?
- I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE.
- I ONLY KNOW WHAT I HEARD.
- WHICH WAS WHAT?
I USED TO HANG OU WITH ONE OF THE MUSICIANS
IN MATHEWS'S BAND.
HE WAS JUS AN OLD GUITAR PLAYER THAT WAS
THERE AT THE BEGINNING.
HE TOLD ME HE THOUGHT TIPPE WAS WRITING SONGS FOR MATHEWS.
MAYBE SOME OF THE HITS.
WHY DIDN'T HE EVER
GET ANY CREDIT?
MAYBE YOU OUGHTA
ASK MATHEWS ABOUT THAT.
WOULD YOU EXCUSE ME
FOR A MINUTE?
SURE.
THANK YOU.
DID YOU GET AHOLD OF JODY?
I-I COULDN'T FIND HER.
[ Sighs ] WELL, I GUESS
SKIP'S TRUCK WILL HAVE TO
GET US WHERE WE'RE GONNA GO.
WHERE, BACK UP TO MATHEWS'S?
NO, BACK TO DIXIE JAMES.
WITH THIS NEW EVIDENCE,
MAYBE WE CAN CONVINCE HER
THAT DUANE'S IN
REAL TROUBLE, AND WE'RE
THE ONLY HOPE HE'S GOT.
COME ON. LET'S GO.
HELLO.
[ Duane ]
HI, HONEY.
DUANE. WHAT'S WRONG?
YOU DON'T SOUND GOOD.
- I'M GOING ON A TRIP.
- A TRIP? WHERE?
OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
WHAT?
ROBERT'S TAKING YOU,
ISN'T HE?
YEAH. HE'S DOING I FOR MY OWN GOOD.
BULL, DUANE! HE'S DOING I FOR HIS OWN GOOD.
HE KILLED KENNY TIPPET,
DIDN'T HE?
DIXIE.
I JUST CALLED TO TELL YOU
I LOVE YOU.
AND ROBERT WILL BE BRINGING YOU
TO ME IN A FEW WEEKS.
DUANE, LISTEN TO ME.
ROBERT CAN'T BE TRUSTED.
DON'T GO ANYWHERE WITH HIM.
LOOK, TELL ME WHERE YOU ARE,
AND I'LL COME AND GET YOU.
I CAN'T.
ROBERT WILL BE MAD AT ME
IF I DON'T GO WITH HIM.
- I'LL BE MAD AT YOU IF YOU DO.
- OH, DIXIE.
DON'T BE MAD AT ME.
I GOTTA GO.
HONEY, EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE
WHEN WE'RE IN MEXICO.
LOOK, DUANE, YOU'RE RIGHT.
ROBERT WILL HELP YOU.
ALL I WANT TO DO IS COME OVER
AND KISS YOU GOOD-BYE.
THAT'S ALL.
BUT, UH--
OH, HONEY, COME ON, PLEASE.
I JUST HAVE TO.
JUST ONE GREAT BIG
KISS GOOD-BYE?
WELL, IF YOU GET HERE
BEFORE ROBERT.
OKAY.
OKAY, DARLING.
THANK YOU. BYE.
LOOK. DON'T BOTHER ME.
I'M IN A HURRY.
- YEAH, WELL, SO ARE WE.
- WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR TRUCK?
- MATHEWS PUSHED I OVER A CLIFF.
- YEAH, WITH US IN IT.
[ Colt ]
AND GOD KNOWS
WHAT HE'LL DO TO DUANE.
LISTEN. WE'RE ON YOUR SIDE NOW.
WE DON'T THINK DUANE KILLED
KENNY EITHER.
YOU PROMISE
IF I TAKE YOU TO DUANE
THAT HE'LL GET A FAIR TRIAL,
AND YOU'LL HELP HIM
CLEAR HIMSELF?
- YOU GOT OUR WORD.
- OKAY. HE JUST CALLED.
I KNOW WHERE HE IS.
BUT WE GOTTA HURRY.
ROBERT'S TAKING HIM
OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
LET'S GO.
CAN'T THIS THING
GO ANY FASTER?
I SURE WISH WE COULD HAVE
GOTTEN AHOLD OF JODY.
THAT DOESN'T MATTER NOW.
MOTEL SHOULD BE
JUST DOWN A FEW BLOCKS.
DUANE, YOU SURE YOU GO ALL YOUR THINGS?
I DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH.
I'LL GET YOU A NEW WARDROBE
IN MEXICO. SURE IS PRETTY
THERE THIS TIME OF YEAR.
YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN' FOR?
HUH? NOTHIN'.
I'LL CHECK AND SEE
WHAT ROOM HE'S IN.
THAT'S DIXIE WITH THOSE
TWO BOUNTY HUNTERS.
DUANE, YOU CALLED HER.
I'M SORRY, MR. MATHEWS.
THAT'S THE TWO GUYS THAT ARE
TRYING TO PUT YOU IN JAIL!
SHE DOUBLE-CROSSED YOU!
WE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE.
AH, THEY'RE SPLITTING.
[ Tires Squealing ]
[ Dixie ]
COLT, WE'LL NEVER
CATCH HIM IN THIS.
- [ Howie ]
LOOK OUT, COLT!
- [ Horn Honks ]
[ Air Hissing ]
[ Hits Truck ]
[ Tool Squeaking ]
WELL, AT LEAS HE HAD A SPARE.
YEAH.
HURRY UP, WILL YA?
ROBERT WILL HAVE DUANE
OUT OF THE COUNTRY
BEFORE WE EVEN GET THERE.
WHERE? WE LOST HIM.
WELL, ROBERT HAS HIS OWN PLANE.
AND IF HE'S TAKING DUANE
OUT OF THE COUNTRY,
HE'S PROBABLY TAKING HIM
TO HIS PRIVATE LANDING STRIP.
[ Colt ] WHERE'S THAT?
HE BOUGHT A PIECE OF AN OLD
MOVIE RANCH, TURNED I INTO HIS OWN AIRPORT.
THE OLD RKO RANCH.
YEAH.
I KNOW WHERE THAT IS. I DID
A COUPLE OF WESTERNS THERE.
LET'S GIVE IT A SHOT.
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE
DIXIE'D DO THAT.
I NEVER TRUSTED HER.
SHE DOESN'T CARE FOR YOU
LIKE I DO.
YOU NEED TO DEPEND
ON ME, DUANE.
I DO, ROBERT.
YOU'RE MY FRIEND.
COME ON.
LET'S GO INSIDE THE SHED
TILL THE PLANE COMES IN.
WHAT DO WE HAVE TO WAI IN HERE FOR?
I CAN'T TAKE ANY CHANCES
ON SOMEONE SEEING YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU SAFE
AND SOUND DOWN IN MEXICO.
WHAT'S IT GONNA BE LIKE
DOWN IN MEXICO?
WELL, YOU'RE NOT GONNA MISS
DIXIE, THAT'S FOR SURE.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
MORE SEÃORITAS THAN YOU'LL
BE ABLE TO HANDLE.
WHERE WE GONNA LIVE?
RIGHT ON THE BEACH.
I'LL GET YOU A PLACE
OF YOUR OWN. BE ABLE TO
GET UP IN THE MORNING
AND LOOK OUT AT THE SEA.
CAN WE GO FISHING?
THEY GOT MARLIN DOWN THERE
BIGGER THAN YOU ARE.
SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD,
MR. MATHEWS.
GOOD? IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.
HEAVEN ON EARTH.
YEAH. HEAVEN ON EARTH.
- YOU STAY INSIDE TILL
THE PLANE COMES, ALL RIGHT?
- OKAY.
THAT'S FUNNY.
WHY'D HE LOCK ME
IN HERE LIKE THAT?
[ Dixie ]
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO
IF WE DON'T GET THERE IN TIME?
WHAT IF HE TAKES OFF
WITH DUANE?
DON'T WORRY.
WE'RE ALMOST THERE.
YEAH,
BUT NOW THAT MATHEWS KNOWS
YOU'RE ONTO HIM, HE MIGH DO SOMETHING TERRIBLE.
[ Sniffing ]
MR. MATHEWS!
MR. MATHEWS, HELP!
[ Knocking Continues ]
MR. MATHEWS!
HE DOUBLE-CROSSED ME!
HELP!
COLT, LOOK.
DUANE'S NOT WITH HIM.
HE MUST BE IN THAT HOUSE.
WE GOT TO GET DOWN THERE.
ROBERT STORES THE FUEL
FOR HIS PLANE IN THAT HOUSE.
IT'S GONNA BLOW ANY SECOND.
WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT.
IT'LL TAKE FIVE MINUTES
BY THE ROAD. WE'RE GONNA
TAKE A SHORTCUT.
[ Colt ]
HANG ON.
YOU GET MATHEWS. I'LL GET DUANE.
YOU GET AWAY FROM THE HOUSE.
IT'S GONNA BLOW.
BUT--
NO, GET AWAY
FROM THE HOUSE. GO ON.
[ Tires Screech ]
DUANE.
HEY, SEAVERS,
YOU GOT THE WRONG MAN.
YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO GET DUANE, NOT ME.
HE KILLED TIPPET. HE CONFESSED.
NOW HE KNOWS YOU TRIED
TO KILL HIM, I THINK
HE'LL CHANGE HIS STORY.
GET DOWN.
IT'S GONNA BLOW!
GET DOWN.
[ Skip ]
THE MEMORIES,
THE GOOD TIMES WE HAD.
I MEAN, THERE WERE TIMES
WE'D JUST GO OFF TOGETHER,
THE TWO OF US, FOR WEEKS.
PART OF MY LIFE
WAS IN THAT TRUCK,
AND WHEN SHE BLEW UP,
PART OF ME SORT OF DIED.
COLT, HE'S TALKING
ABOUT THAT TRUCK
LIKE IT WAS A PERSON.
OH, SKIP,
I'LL MAKE IT UP TO YOU.
I SWEAR.
IN FACT, I'M TRYING
TO SWING IT SO THAT WHEN
MATHEWS'S TRIAL IS OVER,
YOU GET THIS LIMO.
A LIMO?
YEAH. YOU SEE,
BIG JACK IS SUING
MATHEWS FOR DAMAGES,
AND SHE THINKS THAT SHE CAN
GET YOU THIS AS COMPENSATION
FOR YOUR TRUCK.
NOTHING
CAN REPLACE MY TRUCK.
OH, NOW, SKIP,
A LIMOUSINE CAN BE
PRETTY SPECIAL TOO.
YEAH, TAKE A LOOK
IN THE BACKSEAT.
YOU KNOW, THERE'S PLENTY
OF ROOM TO SLEEP IN THERE.
A HEATER, A STEREO.
HEY.
HEY, I'M BEGINNING TO SEE
WHAT YOU BOYS MEAN.
IF I WERE TO PUT A TORCH
TO THE BACK OF THIS THING--
TORCH TO A LIMO?
SHUT UP, KID.
THERE'S A GENIUS AT WORK.
I COULD CUT THE BACK
OF THIS SUCKER OUT
AND HAVE ENOUGH ROOM
TO BUILD A HOUSE
WITH A LOFT!
A LOFT?
TWO-STORY.
IF I BEEF UP
THE SUSPENSION,
MAYBE I COULD EVEN
PUT IN A HOT TUB.
HOT TUB!
COLT, SKIP'S STARTING TO GE PRETTY ATTACHED TO THIS LIMO.
WHAT HAPPENS IF BIG JACK
CAN'T GET IT FOR HIM?
I GUESS MY--
GUESS MY TRUCK
WILL BE GOING CONDO.
